I have the following data of events by players in a game. Using this data I would like to know how many times each player played for their team across the data set. When I group the data, I count the number of instances of the player column but that can be too high ie they have 3 events in a game but that should only count as them having played once. I can't find a way to get if they played or not per match and not all their events when grouping.
Desired result would be :
Team | Player | No of Times Played |
---|---|---|
AAA | P1 | 3 |
AAA | P2 | 2 |
As P1 played on 1/1, 1/2 and 1/4) As P2 only played on 1/1 and 1/2 and not 1/4)
Here is the source data:
Team | Date | Player | Event |
---|---|---|---|
AAA | 1/1/23 | P1 | Shoot |
AAA | 1/1/23 | P2 | Miss |
AAA | 1/1/23 | P1 | Pass |
AAA | 1/1/23 | P3 | Score |
AAA | 1/1/23 | P5 | Miss |
AAA | 1/1/23 | P1 | Shoot |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P6 | Shoot |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P1 | Miss |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P3 | Pass |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P4 | Miss |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P7 | Miss |
AAA | 1/2/23 | P1 | Shoot |
AAA | 1/4/23 | P1 | Score |
AAA | 1/4/23 | P2 | Shoot |
AAA | 1/4/23 | P4 | Miss |
BBB | 1/1/23 | P1 | Miss |
BBB | 1/1/23 | P3 | Miss |
BBB | 1/1/23 | P1 | Pass |
BBB | 1/1/23 | P6 | Score |
BBB | 1/3/23 | P5 | Miss |
BBB | 1/3/23 | P3 | Shoot |
BBB | 1/3/23 | P2 | Shoot |
BBB | 1/4/23 | P1 | Score |
BBB | 1/4/23 | P3 | Pass |
Group by but counts the number of rows, not unique instances
Do a group and replace the code as follows:
= Table.Group(#"Changed Type", {"Team", "Player"}, {{"Count", each List.Count( List.Distinct( _[Date])) , Int64.Type}})
